Luminous touch pad
Abstract
A luminous touch pad includes a covering plate, a circuit board, a light guide structure and a first light-shading adhesive. The covering plate includes a first surface and a second surface. The circuit board is located under the covering plate. The circuit board includes a third surface and a fourth surface. The light guide structure is arranged between the covering plate and the circuit board. The light guide structure includes a lateral surrounding surface. An adhesive receiving space is defined by the lateral surrounding surface, a portion of the second surface and a portion of the third surface collaboratively. The first light-shading adhesive is disposed within the adhesive receiving space and arranged around the light guide structure. The first light-shading adhesive is contacted with the portion of the second surface, the portion of the third surface and the lateral surrounding surface.
